To all whom it may concern:

Be -itkknown that I, CLARENCE ing `at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have in` vented certain new and useful Improve'-v inents in Glass Pass-Baskets; and I do.

hereby declare the following to be a full7 clear, and exact description of the inveiition, such as will enable others skilledin the art to which the saine. Y l

This invention relates to. receptacles for use in the walls of partitions between the it appertains to inake and use y convenience sake maybe ytermed a pass Y basket.

It has for anV` object to provide adevice of this lcharacter whichinay be made of glass or other vitreous materials and which may be securely held in the wall of a' cage. v

Further objects will be `apli'ia'rent from the following` specification, appended claims and drawing, iny which,

Figure 1 is an isometric `view showing the Fig. 2 is',` a crosslsectional view through the wall ofthe cage showing how the basket is held inplace. y i

This invention provides for the `forniation `of-a receptacle of glass or other suit-V v ablev material, which may be held in the wall of a bank tellers cage by the ymeeting edges of sections of grille work which constitutes ksaid wall and said basket will be shaped to properly receive articleswhich need to be passed from one cageto another,

while at the saine time vQafiording protec-U tion to, said articles against accidental displacement.

' Referring to the drawings, in which the device is clearly shown, 10 and 11 indicate sections of grille work which are `provided with the binding stripsv 12 and 13to permit said sections of grille work being held together in the ordinary manner. The bindand to `theunderface of the section 15of the strip 12 is attached a rounded or oth* erwise shaped section 16 to present a smooth under surface for the section 15 as articles are being passed through the opening. thus formed.

A. FULLi'iR- "roN, a citizen of the United States, resid- A glass or other receptacle 17 `is placed l in they opening and this receptacle has a bead 18 formed thereabout from the oppo` site ends of which continues the curved bot-` toni 19. The side walls are recessed as at 20 to receive the rounded strip 16 and the bottoin of this receptacle is provided with the 5 parallel ribs .21 between which the strip 13 passes. It will be seen that when the parts arev assembled and the receptacle is included in the opening so formed by the odsetsl and section 15, this receptacle'is securely H held betweenthe sections of the grille work jby the recesses 20 and the ribs 21 and that booths or cages `of tellersin banks and for no further fastening means are required.

y It is also apparent that modification may be made in view of the foregoing, as it is possible to alter the relative positions of the ribs and recessed portions to meet existing conditions but in each event the principle will remain.

Having thus described this invention,"I A

edges thereof notched, a groove formed across the bottom facel of said receptacle under said notched portions, said groove v and said notched portions of said receptacle comprising a central portion of reduced cross sectional dimension, and said receptacle being secured in a partition by having said reduced portion Vgripped between meet` ing edges of sections of a partition.
